Can hackathon be used to imagine the future of a city?

What sparks can be created by AI x University Students x Hackathon x Tai Kok Tsui?

The "Future Imagineer Academy" team held a three-day "Future Imagination Hackathon: Student Ideas Competition," bringing together eight teams of about 30 university students from diverse backgrounds. Over the course of three intensive days, participants underwent training, engaged in dialogues with community members and professionals, understanding the community, brainstormed ideas, and used AI platforms to envision the future of spaces in Tai Kok Tsui.

We sincerely thank all the students for their dedicated efforts and all the guests and friends for their support. Let’s look back on these exciting three days together. The students’ ideas will also be showcased in the upcoming “Future Imagination Academy” Final Exhibition, so please stay tuned!
